Mortimer & Whitehouse: Gone Fishing. Image shows left to right: Paul Whitehouse, Bob Mortimer
Bob and Paul return to the Derbyshire Wye and its neighbour the Derwent, this time with Ted, to revisit the place they first fished together.

Further details

Paul and Bob return to the Peak District, this time with Ted, where they filmed their first episode of Gone Fishing back in 2017. Will the memories of that first trip come flooding back?

They start by fishing the Wye at Haddon Hall, hoping to catch chub, rainbow trout and wild brown trout, before moving on to the Derwent. As they cast, they recall memories of that first trip and look at how they've changed over the last six years.
